SoftAP problems.

Postby espdev » Mon Aug 14, 2017 1:27 pm

Hi all.
New to the esp chip. I have been trying to get the esp32 to work as an acess point. However, I cant get it to work correctly.
The esp will broadcast the network, but when devices try connect they fail most of the time with an error saying that they could not retrieve an IP-adress. I have tried to enable the DHCP server with tcpip_adapter_start.

What am I missing?

Code: Select all

#include <stdio.h>
#include "freertos/FreeRTOS.h"
#include "freertos/task.h"
#include "freertos/queue.h"
#include "esp_system.h"
#include "esp_spi_flash.h"
#include "lwip/ip_addr.h"


#include "common.h"


#include "esp_event.h"
#include "driver/gpio.h"


#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include "freertos/FreeRTOS.h"
#include "freertos/task.h"
#include "freertos/event_groups.h"
#include "esp_system.h"
#include "esp_wifi.h"
#include "esp_event_loop.h"
#include "esp_log.h"



#include <esp_event.h>
#include <esp_event_loop.h>
#include <esp_log.h>
#include <esp_system.h>
#include <esp_wifi.h>
#include <freertos/FreeRTOS.h>
#include <nvs_flash.h>
